Thomas Paine: Eighteenth Century Feminist
Harbison, John L.
Social Studies, 69, 3, 103-7, May/Jun 78
Unlike Franklin, Jefferson, and Adams, Thomas Paine was a feminist, a revolutionary in his time for the cause of women's rights and their liberation from servility. While others considered women second-class citizens whose only place was in the home. Paine argued for the political, legal, economic, and social rights of women. (Author/BC)
